they should go full victorian. no antibiotics, insist on going to the barber for getting their teeth pulled, if they have to go for surgery force the surgeon to use ether and not wear gloves. call black people, italians, irish and chinese racial slurs in public. also yell at men and women for not dressing like prudes. use arsenic and lead bssed makeup. no sewer system so they contract cholera and die by 40. their victorian larp is weak.

also gently caress the victorian era.

I hope they get pneumonia and die because they don't "believe" in penicillin or whatever.

edit: Or if penicillin was invented during their ironic time period some other ironic death. Like a fire that they can't put out with a bucket of fire and their antique phones have melted or something.

realization of penicillin's antibiotic effects was around 1942 where it started saving lives during the war when it was discovered how to mass produce it. it was actually considered to be a huge secret, because the nazis never discovered it's antimicrobial properties nor how to manufacture it on a large scale.

that's because everything is conquered and plundered, all the careers are gradually having money sapped from them thanks to inflation and wage stagnation. the wealth is drying up too, most of the wealth owned in the next ten to twenty years will not be created but inherited. there is no honor anymore, especially for a military that will churn you up and spit you out solely to protect its sphere of influence. there is no reason to complicate crushing student loans with equally crushing costs of raising children and owning a home. fame is luck and a genetic lottery and you have to make someone incredibly wealthy even wealthier. if you try this path and fail you will be exploited every step of the way, eventually falling into alcoholism and drug abuse.

the option you gave is the only option left. gently caress the game, drown in earthly pleasures while the world burns. just as long as you don't drink heineken.

we are pretty lucky yup, which is why I said enjoy earthly pleasures and not starve to death in the gutter instead. you also still need a desk job to afford a lovely studio apartment.

there's also a ton of personally enriching stuff you can do as well. i left that out. but i am sure people can figure it out. like going to the university of american samoa and becoming a public defender or masturbating all day. poo poo like that

i read this as "rear end wiped" and got confucius...

in any event, this kind of rhetoric is unconvincing b/c it advocates violence as sensible policy.

it's like the guy who beats his kids and says "i got beat as a kid, and i turned out just fine."
